Strength is an abstract parameter that consists of many variables that can potentially influence the amount of force being exerted with certain individuals. In another word, strength represents the ability of extortion or endurance. Grip strength is subject to many health concerns and body mass index are few of the factors that could potentially influence the strength of individuals. And that throughout many studies gender and age correlation with grip strength could range from no significance to no relationship at all. There is a wide range of disparity in determining the influence gender could potentially have on grip strength (Massy-Westropp, Nicola M., et al., 2011). This experiment seeks to explore the distinction of gender may potentially have on force exertion. Male physiological mechanism generates more force in comparison to the fairer sex in both hands. The null hypothesis is that the gender of the participants is not relevant and that there will not be a difference in the force being exerted by either gender.

Force are measured by the Vernier Hand Dynamometer. Whereas the recording of the measurements is through a computerized program, known as Logger Pro. Before the experiment, the participants are subjected to a demographic questionnaire. The initial preparation of the experiment is to connect the Hand Dynamometer to a computer interference then open the file, “16a Compare Grip Strength” from the Human Physiology with Vernier folder, through the Logger Pro program to zero the Hand Dynamometer. In order to zero the readings on the device, hold the hand dynamometer along the sides in a vertical position while not applying any force on the pads of the device. Next, click the Zero button on the
